Works as described. Easy to use. I was able to connect my electric guitar to my iPad and plug in headphones to my iPad. This is exactly what you need for the Gibson app and to add effect pedals.

I bought this to start using virtual effects and amp models in my iPhone, mostly with live performance in mind. The iPhone I'm using for this is an older one, an iPhone 6, and that's one reason I chose the iRig2, since it takes advantage of the 6's 3.5mm headphone jack, leaving the lightning port free for other uses. Also, I love the simplicity of this analog unit, and the price is great.I primarily use Tonestack for my virtual effects, and it pops up a warning with the IRig2 about higher risk of feedback with headphone jack interfaces. Because of this, Tonestack automatically turns on feedback protection for this device, and I've had no issues at all. I'm mostly plugging into this with a simple and inexpensive soundhole pickup mounted in my acoustic guitar. I initially worried about latency, but it hasn't been an issue for me - seems fine for my purposes. Sound quality has been great.I really love this little device. It let me repurpose an old iPhone 6 that was just sitting unused in a drawer, and now I have a very economical virtual guitar setup that's working great for my needs.

I bought this to use at my church. I use it to be able to live stream from our sound board in the easiest and most cost effective way possible.Pros: It did the job. You just plug it into the phone or whatever you’re using to record. It couldn’t be easier. It’s cheap.Cons: It’s not made for what I was using it for. It only works on apple products. If you have a digital board, look for a digital version of this. It also was hard to determine the volume level on the irig. There are no markings just a dial type thing. (Don’t know what it’s called, sorry.) There’s no way of knowing if it’s peaking until you record and listen after you’re done. That’s not great for live sound. Finally, it has a hard time with hi tones. Our female vocals and our electric guitars would peak long before anything else would.Our circumstances due to Covid were that we wanted to spend as little money as possible to get a livestream of our services. The way I would sound check sound levels ahead of time would be to do one instrument at a time and record onto my phone and listen back to what it recorded. Then we would all play together and listen back to the recording. Every tweak we made required us to do another recording and listen to see if it fixed the problem. It was time consuming and not the best tool for the job, but it worked and we didn’t spend a lot of money.If you have the money to spend, get something else. If not, this will work it will just require more time and patience.

Finally! A mobile sound dongle that works with my android! My last irig was for an iPhone and it lasted me an eternity. High hopes for this one

This little gem is a game changer for guitar practice for me and at only 40 bucks it may the best toy I ever purchased for my guitar playing. Here is why I love it so far.1. I can practice with headphones now and all I have to do is plug in my guitar, headphones, and the iRig2 into my iPhone or iPad.2. Portable and small.3. No batteries needed!4. The free app has several useful practice features allowing me to do away with having several apps open at one time to practice. The free amplitube app has a tuner, can import and play backing tracks, can slow down tracks, can add effects without pedals, can access the iPad's mic, can record my practice sessions, has a metronome and more. One app to rule them all!5. I can also plug into an amp if I don't want to use headphones.6. I don't wake my wife and kid up when I practice and don't annoy them when they are watching TV.7. The sounds quality is excellent for my intended use. No feedback yet and the external gain control is nice too.8. The free app is easy to use. I figured out everything I will use in five minutes.9. Plug and play even for a newbie.10. I get to try more amps and effects than I could ever afford to buy or even want to buy without ever leaving the house. Of course, some of those will cost extra as in app purchases so keep that in mind.11. I practice more now because it is less of a pain to get going.12. I practice any where I want without having to bring an amp. Just my guitar and a few small items in my gig bag.A few observations. For the record, I am using an iPhone and iPad without issue so I can't speak to how it works with Android or others. Seems pretty sturdy. The mic velcro could be useful in the future for live use. Packaging is nice. It is smaller than I thought it would be. The extra cost for in app purchases may annoy some but after reading some complaints, I was pleasantly surprised by what is included. I can't believe it only cost $40 and that it works as advertised. Big surprise. I expected more bugs but I guess this is pretty basic technology. Unless you are playing live for money or you need professional quality recordings, I would skip the HD version and save $60 by getting this one.Extra pedals, drums, and amps cost more. They range individually for as low as $2.99 and as high as $99 for an "everything they sell" bundle. You can download the Amplitube app for free and have a look at all the extras before you even buy the irig2 if you like and then delete the app if you choose later.I should have purchased something like this a long time ago. Happy playing everyone!

for my purposes using to output iPad pro virtual instruments, i was hoping the GAIN knob would also function to control the Amp Output, if no signal is received from the guitar input. It's just an empty knob.(optionally, you can run out of this to a volume pedal, then to an amp or di box or pa system - this gives you overall volume control of your keys rig, without having to map cc volume controls to every vsti.)Maybe a firmware in the future will fix this oversight.Keeping the product, as they are a good company I've already bought too much software from! 😅

Very simple to operate, and works like a charm. I originally ordered the HD model. It worked for about a minute. After multiple attempts to resolve the issue, I sent it back.

it's cheap for real but it has some noise issues that annoys me quite often. i'd say just buy an audio interface

O produto é excelente, especialmente usando com os apps ToneBridge, Garage Band e Amplituber. Se vai usar com Android (testei com Samsung linhas A, M e S) nãodeu certo, tem atraso de latência e corta o som. Só funcionou com iPad e iPhone.

Se escucha muy distorsionado el sonido, mucho ruido

If I'm travelling somewhere with my guitar, I always take this portable interface with my laptop so I can noodle away using either Amplitube or Guitar Rig Pro. It's small, portable, convenient, great value, in other words a great little device.
